Wait, so Soi Fon and Toshiro died? Lolololol.

Though I guess I can't be expecting permanent death since this is Kubo...

Hope Urahara makes things interesting; it's just a one-sided slaughter right now.

Oh sweet irony!
You are assuming they are dead based on nothing else than their reiatsu disappearing when it has been proven countless of time that in the Bleach universe this does not mean death.
Then because of said assumption that is completely your fault, you're blaming the author's writing.

Rinse and repeat and you get what happen in every Bleach thread since... forever.
You people create an understanding of the universe with the information given by Kubo and then subconsciously fill up the "holes" with assumptions. Then you assume that these assumptions are facts only because so far everything have worked fine the way you thought it was.

The problem is that Kubo is filling more and more of these "holes" by adding information in his manga and now it creates contradiction between the information you assumed were right and the information that are actually right.

It is easy to say that something is bad because it goes against your assumption but it is hard to back it up with argument since in the end, it was only because of your assumptions. That's why these thread are full of people saying it doesn't make sense without actually pointing to information that contradict each others.

Bleach isn't perfect and Kubo's writing got it's share of problem but every time I come into these thread, Kubo get bashed for things that he didn't do. People are bashing Kubo for the wrong reasons and that is the point that hit on my nerves.

Good God, this is getting pathetic. Why the hell did Nanao think it was a good idea not to teach everyone that Kido technique? I thought she was smart. And where the hell are the Vizards?

1) she is quiet strong with kido, I guess
2) not everyone is strong with kido
3) and the most important it's temporal!


1. She just said that she was selected for her Kido prowess.
2. Agreed, but the captains should be good enough to use it.
3. Doesn't matter. They can use that time to recover or come up with a strategy.


2. Every captain? Have you ever seen Zaraki using kido? Other may or may not be strong enough but
3. It matter. If you have technique that you can use, let say, 5 minutes, and it takes lots of time to learn it you don't learn others. It's better to let them train in their own domain(like ice+sand ). She can teach guys like Mayuri or Byakuya(if he was there). Some captains would just waste their time.


2. Of course Zaraki can't use Kido. But she can at least inform the others that there is such a technique, just to give them a heads up.
3. We just saw in this chapter that Hitsugaya needed more time, so even if it was temporary, it would've helped leaps. In the end, all we saw was utter stupidity from yet another Shinigami.


ok you need to get something into your head and fast. you need special talent to master kido. and the kido nanao used is not a low level kido. she would've had a hard time developing it let alone teaching it to someone. have you ever seen toshiro or soifon use a kido over 20? no. what will be the point of teaching it to him? and it's not like they had a whole year off after the previous invasion. not enough time. use your brain. it feels good to use what's inside your head. believe me.

i am laughing real hard now. for the past few weeks people have talked and predicted these battles with such confidence. none of them came true-
1) bazz b is a fodder. lol, he is moping the floor with hitsu,
2) ichigo is coming to save them, lol, it's urahara,
3) sternritters are fodders, we will have a quickie and all the captains will win. lol, none of them are even close to standing up against them.
4) hitsu has used an ice clone, lol.
5) in chap 551 we are going to see a turn of the tide and bazz b will get one shot. lol. it's utter despair in the ss now.

now these blockheads are angry with kubo because their predictions all became null and void. those who are asking why quincies are winning so easily against these young captains- have not even tried to remember what has been said and implied in previous chapters of bleach. the power levels in bleach is not so confusing for those who have actually read it thoroughly.

2) You actually forgot that Shinigami spend years/decade learning how to do basic kido. Such specialized and irregular kido will not be learnt overnight and for 'normal growth' shinigami it might even takes weeks/months to use it to a comfortable level.

And you're forgetting that there are other characters that are quite skillful with Kido. Like Hinamori, Tessai, Hachi, Aizen(I know, he is not relevant right now, but you get the idea). It would be good to put them in some strategic positions in SS with that spell in hand. Some of the captains are quite good with it too. Someone mentioned that Unohana had "maxed" all statistics in some guidebook - now it would be good to use the data from it[I hope Kubo got the copy of such guidebook to his own characters]. I bet also Yoruichi(who taught Byakuya) is quite good with it.

Agreed. And not to mention, when was the last time Kido's being useful? Wasn't it Urahara (an outsider) to capture Aizen years ago. We had discussion how Kubo disregarded this ability especially when needed, in earlier quincy invasion arc. did anyone properly used it when half of the captains lost their bankai. Byakuya is a kido master. Also Captain level shinigami's (except zaraki) should know some high level kidos because it is important at times like this when zanpaktou's are not really useful.

Because they're good doesn't mean that they can learn it overnight. This isn't a rpg where you simply have to use a skill-book to learn how to use a kido, it's a much longer and tedious process similar to assimilating a martial art technique.
It's a technique that girl developed in-between the two quincies attack, there's no way she had the time to teach people about it. It's also not perfect, not optimized and is still in a stage of development.

What the shinigami needed wasn't this kido, it was time.
They barely recovered from the first attack that the quincies are already here striking again. They are not like Ichigo that went from a novice shinigami to bankai in about a month, they're people that trained decade/hundred of years for the power they have now. Asking them to double that power under a month is asking for the impossible.

Come on. We've seen Yoruichi learning how to do that energy ball instantly(can exactly remeber what was that exactly, something about safe travel to the SS, guess they didn't have the Soul Tickets at time), we've seen Ichigo learning (not)bankai within days. Tessai and Hachi are Kidou's masters I think they are capable of learning that, this manga is all about quick progress. Add to that Yoruichi, Urahara(I know, unavailable) and some people that are kidou gods but we don't know about it yet.
I suspect trying to perfect that jutsu would be more useful than Hitsugaya's swordfight training @_@. And Nanao is kidou genius from now on. Probably that's why... she wasn't seen during Fake Karakura? I'm confused now x).

Exactly, that's why it was so frustrating not being able to see actual fights at that time.

Ichigo is an exception, afair hogyoku have been helping him, he learnt bankai via special training risking... his life(or something else, I don't remember) and so on, so on.
Tessai & Hachi aren't in SS, but I may be wrong.

man seriously Toshiro u better not die i swear. Damn it kubo why the hell did u give him such awesome powers if he can never fully win. Seriously. Toshiro's a great character and has real potential but Kubo never gives him enough credit. Damn its so annoying and he could of won most of his fights or more likely he should of won most of his fights butthey always get their asses saved by someone. like luppi got saved by aizen summoning him and wonderweiss broke halibel out of his ice prison before she could of frozen to death... -_- i still hope he won't die. Until now the only person he ever lost to was aizen. I still hope to see his completed bankai this week though.
